any of on-line sellers will have 'em...

and it depends what title you have in mind as there are literally dozens of titles released on PS2... (well not dozens but close to dozen. he he)

another thing to consider is shipping. these thing is rather bulky so you will be paying thru your nose for shipping unless your local EB/Gamestop or what ever has it in stock - very unlikely though

im after a duel shock compatible one mainly for densha de go! final.

ive looked everywhere for one including, play asia, japanpa, lik sang, national console support, yes asia, markinjapan and still no luck! (apart from a 3rd party one for over ?50)

the shipping aint a problem.

any other options?

Raven Games in Kent had one in stock for ages. Not sure if they still do but if so they may be willing to take offers on it.

[dj898]

are you after one of those big chucky controller with a handle or one-hand joystick controller?

[butchcvc]

one of the big ones with handle!

[dj898]

good luck finding one...
even in Japan it usually goes for 4000-5000 yen depends on the model...
so probably will be higher for western import shops...

the best one would be the shinkansen model that was released not so long ago...
anyhow I don't follow the series that closely as I only dabbled with PS1/SS/DC...

thanks for the knowledge, i'll probally have to settle with a ps1 version, but i'll keep trying.

thanks

every time I visit Tokyo it's tempting to pick one up but then I remember what missus will be like...

oh well...

[dj898]

this would be the most common type of the controller...


and then there are others as well...

and few others...

that non-taito controller looks mighty big!

tempted to puchase it now from play asia.

Whats the easiest way to pay someone on this Yahoo - Japan thingy. I can see it leading to me spending more money

I could easily be wrong, but i think the other controller is specifically for the Train Simulator game rather than Densha.

Its compatable with the Densha series too, well acording to play-asia anyway, ive never used one myself.
